It is the first ever Safari Park in Sri Lanka.
In 2008, construction work of park was started by the direction of The National Zoological Department of Sri Lanka.
The safari park constructed for the expectation of tourism.
It would be divided into six zones, where carnivorous animals will be in 4 zones and herbivores animals will be in 2 zones. Meanwhile, carnivore animals such as lions, tigers and leopards will be in 2 zones of the carnivore section.
The first phase with the 35-acre African Lion Zone, 54-acre Sri Lanka Elephant Zone and 80 acres World Zone was opened to the public.

This is a trip to " RIDIYAGAMA SAFARI PARK " we went with my family. This is kind of adventure experience that i got in my life. This Safari park located in Hambantotha. In Sri Lanka first time ever to get a this kind of a experience. In this safari park animals lived in freely and we were taken a round trip from their buses. Also we can go near to the animals but we are not allowed to get off from the buses.
You can find the some lovely pictures i have taken.
nice trip :)
